Chorus:
Close your eyes December child
And dream my little son and moon
May the stars be your crown
And may the earth guide you round and round
Snuggle up and let me hold
Kiss your baby breathin the dark and cold
On a silent night long ago
Another mother held her baby and told him
Repeat Chorus:
They had come such a long long way
Rest your little head on me and i'll tell you of
A little king and his bed of hay
It is remembered every Christmas day
Little one, little son
All my life i've wished you welcome
Repeat Chorus:
